JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Generally speaking, UFC president Dana White is happy with the COVID-19 testing system his promotion instituted for UFC 249 fight week. Friday night, middleweight Ronaldo Souza , became the first promotional fighter to test positive for COVID-19 as result of a UFC-run test. “Jacare” Souza was scheduled to fight Uriah Hall on the UFC 249 prelims. Instead, he and two of his corners found out coronavirus was in their system – and were sent home. “We found out last night,” White said, at a UFC 249 press conference following the conclusion of Saturday’s event.
